Open on Wowhead ↗ Suggest a correction

What to do

Reach level 3 to learn Shadow Word: Pain, then use it 5 times on target dummies near the crash site.

Objective by objective

  • Kill or interact with Training Dummy NPC #44703
  • Cast or use spell #589

The quest's own structured objectives. How many of each you need is set by the game when you accept it, so it is not stored here – the sentence above is the quest's own wording.

The quest giver's words

As a priest, one of your most important duties is to use the Light's power to aid the wounded.

Another is to use your power offensively, to protect them.

As you grow more experienced, you will begin to uncover new abilities that you can use in your charge. Go, gain more experience, and then demonstrate the abilities you have learned to me.

Progress

Have you seen to the wounds of the crash survivors?

Completion

You'll often find your skills in demand, <name>. Do not hesitate to return when you need more training.

What you need

Nothing: no quest item is handed out and none is required to start.

The reward

No item reward.

The game pays the full figure up to five levels above the quest, then 20 % less for each level more, down to a tenth, and none at the level cap. A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.

What players recorded

Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.

Nobody has completed this quest with telemetry on yet, so there is no timing. Everything below is drawn straight from the 0 recorded attempts the hub has.

How precise this guide is

Early guide Built from 0 runs by 0 players – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.

  • Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in needs one recorded run not yet
  • Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 0) not yet
  • Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 0) not yet
  • Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 0 from 0) not yet

The route

An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.

Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Ammen Vale), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
